My girlfriend Susan and I went out to Lake Wa today. 8:30am-2:30. Fish seemed to be biting well. We caught a lot of dinks, so we probably got 10-15 fish each. A couple perch, and a 3lb squawfish were also caught. Mostly were caught using drop shot rigs. Around 1pm we had a great experience. I started it off with a 4.2 smallmouth. When I pulled this fish into the boat, I swore I had my first 5 lb smallie, man this fish was FAT. Barely measured 18 inches long. My girlfriend Susan caught her 3.9 lb smallie about 15 minutes after mine. That's her biggest smallie so far, and I imagine will get beat fairly soon :) These fish are really eating up. A lot of 11-12 inch fish were caught, and a few around 14 inchs, Great day on the water.
